Go Green Lower East Side – April 25
The Rude Mechanical Orchestra joined Time’s Up! and the Go Green Lower Least Side Coalition to bring one of the malls on Allen Street to life the Saturday after Earth Day! The Department of Transportation has a bike lane redesign in the works for Allen Street and we’re excited by the potential for revitalization on the mall in the middle of the street. Time’s Up! of course was offering FREE Bike Repair Education, Helmet and Safety Checks, and FREE Seed Planting Workshops.
Other activities and events included:
-Green Maps for all
-Energy Efficiency Assessments & Evaluations
-Green Jobs summer training for students
-CFL Bulb Giveaway
-A youth Photo Exhibit and Vision for the Mall and Avenue of the Immigrants Exhibit
Join Time’s Up! along with Green Maps, New York Energy Smart, Win Win Campaign, Hester Street Collaborative, Green Market, LES Boys and Girls Club,LES BID, EcoBizNYC, NYRP, AAFE, Manhattan CB3, and NYC Parks and Recreation.
